It's like how I grew up with this curved spine and my slightly bowed knees. I'm learning to sit up tall and align my knees well. It's hard and it takes conscious effort but that's what's necessary for good posture.
So it is with my tendency to worry--it's what I lapse into, especially when life gets stressful and uncertain. But I need to recognise that the thought that God will let my life fall to pieces is a lie. This promise that God is faithful is exactly that--He is faithful, faithful beyond my imagination.
Today my friend Mo and I partnered up during dance class. He was supposed to guide me across the dance floor, left hand around my waist, right hand holding my right hand, with my eyes closed. I didn't expect him to go quickly, but eventually we were practically running across the floor. I loved the exhilaration of following him and sensing his direction. I didn't need to know where I was going; it was enough to know that he was with me.
I want to translate that experience to a spiritual, daily connection with God.
